What a coincidence....My husband has been taking Bentley (will be 10 months on the 26th) to a cemetery to walk. He said he turned toward him just in time yesterday to see him almost lying on his side & peeing on a lily. That's the first time for sure & hubby was proud, but he hasn't done it since. He has to be on a leash every time he's outside to potty so we see him pee every time. I was wondering if he'd be a squatter for the rest of his life. And, as for marking, he doesn't do that (yet) but our daughter's Bishon does every time he comes here. I thought it was because we have a dog in the house. Is that correct?

Thanks for replying. At least you were able to stop it quickly. I guess we will see what Toby does, I hope he turns out like our Peke and never does this.

He only marked in the house twice, the first time I didn't see him do it, so I just cleaned it up. The second time I saw the leg lifting by my kitchen cabinet, told him "no" very firmly and took him into the garden, and when he finally went in the garden after lots of sniffing (it's important to find the right blade of grass I think ) I gave him lots of praise and a treat. No marking indoors since then.
